Behind the Magic | The Visual Effects of Marvel Studios’ Eternals

[@bkzzzzz]

new realm where vfx movies are born. most of the people watching movie have no idea how difficult and complex this stuff is to make. its magic how they coordinate with hundreds of artist and can deliver such an amazing looking CGI.

[@rhashadcarter2051]

fr fr. As a newbie to the art industry but also as someone who has studied VfX for years just as a hobby, explaining to regular ppl how some of this is made and process is difficult because they really don’t get how some of it even works😂. and how long it takes

@@rhashadcarter2051 As a filmmaker, I always watch even bad movies because still so much time and effort went into them and I always have huge appreciation for the craft!

It's finally happened, I thought certain characters were real in certain shots, but they were CGI, fooled me for the first time! Great work, love those creature designs btw🙂

They at least deserve a nomination but Dune is something else....

[@nrwinner]

Is there anything you guys do that doesn't look phenomenal? Really stunning work!

[@owaismusicofficial]

Its funny how some people take these movies lightly! I'll always be mind blown by how far we've come in that field, we reached levels of photorealism that weren't even dreamed off 2 decades ago.. there was a time when the directors were the ones that took all the credit for making good movies but now a whole army of artists became as important for creating beautiful flawless scenes that bring their stories to life in the most impossible way.. All my respect for ILM & Other vfx studios breaking boundaries everyday ❤

[@santidave8238]

This movie is a Masterpiece and doesn't deserve the hate it gets 😤

[@mikewhocheeseharry5292]

It’s a film that will live in history for many years. When I watched Avengers Endgame, I couldn’t myself watching it again and again and still enjoy it. But Eternals did something to me, like a little could watch Frozen over and over

[@Darth_Vader.731]

Actually it does. There was very little storyline, and the characters were annoying

[@ann2574]

it isn't a Masterpiece, not even close. little character development, very convoluted plot-line and underwhelming climax. But the visuals were absolutely stunning.

[@undisclosed_branding9714]

Controversial opinion

[@huh4206]

@@ann2574 it had more character development than most mcu movies

[@BradK02]

The scene when Ikaris was pinned down was intense. It had the right speed, felt "real".

[@provokedrobin608]

You guys deserve mad respect for working on every MCU movie

[@NoOne-ex4sx]

CGI and special effects are becoming (pun intended) out of this world. It would be one thing if we complimented it on how real it looked, it's another thing entirely if visual effects make certain things (city of Babylon) look BETTER than how they do in real life.

[@KenMai1305]

It was extremely difficult to spot a bad CGI just because there was none. The VFX team did such an amazing job!

[@migHty_spiDey]

If this doesn't win the OSCAR for the best visual effects this year.OSCAR is a lie.Eternals was an outstanding movie.Many people couldn't get whole history just hit their brains.

For anyone still wondering why these kinds of films dominate now, it's because technology finally caught up with the imaginations of the folks who created these characters and their worlds in comics so many years ago

Well, I didn't have a problem watching "Lord of The Rings" or "Jurassic Park" decades ago. But, the standard for what is believable is definitely rising alongside technology.
